Fractalus - Watch Legally and Safely
Huge Hollywood studios aren't the only folks who can do sci-fi, thank you very much. This 24-minute short, directed by James Ward Byrkit (who storyboarded the Pirates of the Caribbean movies), is described as a "futuristic sci-fi love story" involving two characters on separate quests through space and time who end up finding each other. The stars, Austin Highsmith and Maury Sterling, have done enough TV and small films for viewers to fall into that maddening "Where have I seen them?" distraction; and Highsmith, an avid skydiver, at least has some experience getting away from planet Earth.
How to Watch Fractalus Legally and Safely
If you want to stream Fractalus through reputable and legal services, there are a few good options depending on where you are. Subscription platforms like HBO Max, Disney+, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Apple TV+ sometimes carry Fractalus films or related DC titles—though availability depends on your country.
If you’d rather not commit to a subscription, there are ad‑supported, free (but legal) platforms such as Tubi, Pluto TV, Peacock or Crackle (where available in your region) that occasionally host superhero films.
Lastly, don’t forget about library‑linked streaming options like Kanopy or Hoopla (if your library or university is registered), and official uploads by film distributors on YouTube—these can also give you legal access to classic movies.
